Savannah Gentry, now Savi Baker, escaped the torture and degradation forced upon her by a sadistic father for eleven years and has made a safe life for herself and her daughter. When her father threatens her peace of mind—and her daughter's safety—Savi runs to Damián Orlando for protection. Their one day together eight years earlier changed both their lives and resulted in a secret she can no longer hide. But being with Damián reawakens feelings she wants buried—and stirs up an onslaught of disturbing flashbacks that leave her shaken to the core with little hope of ever being a sexual being again.

Damián has his own dragons to fight, but has never forgotten the one perfect day he spent with Savannah in a cave at the beach. He will go to the ends of the earth to protect Savi and her daughter, but can never be the whole man she deserves after a firefight in Iraq. Besides, the trauma of war and resulting PTSD has led him to find his place as the Masters at Arms Club's favorite sadist. Savi needs someone gentle and loving, not the broken man he has become. But he sees that the lifestyle he's come to embrace also can help Savi regain control of her life and sexuality. How can he not help redirect her negative thoughts and actions if she needs him?

Kallypso Masters: Dispelling Myths and Writing Realistic BDSM Novels

I write BDSM erotic romance. I have the photo of a button on my Facebook wall that reads: "BDSM—if you have to ask, you don't need to know." But after the media hoopla over Fifty Shades of Grey (which is NOT considered BDSM by those in the community, those of us who write responsible BDSM, or even the author EL James herself), everyone seems to know a little bit about the genre.

The letters BDSM stand for any number of things. Bondage, Discipline, Dominance, Sadism, Sadist, submissive, Dominant/submissive, Master/slave, Sadomasochism, Masochism, Masochist, Master—and probably several more I'm not thinking of at the moment. Writers in the genre tend to write either Safe, Sane, Consensual BDSM (also known as SSC) or Risk Aware Consensual Kink (sometimes Risk Acceptable Consensual Kink, also known as RACK).
